slide scan from the NK collection. - Invicta operated a total of seven Vanguards, all ex Air Canada, from 1970 to 1975. G-AXOP was unfortunately lost on approach to Basle/Mulhouse on April 1973, when the cockpit crew became disorientated in adverse weather conditions and the aircraft crashed into mountains.
